Breast On Virginia Seal Covered Up
Virginia's attorney general Ken Cuccinelli is hard at work on the
important issues of the day -- like making sure the Roman goddess
depicted on his state's official seal isn't exposing herself.
The current seal shows "Virtus, the goddess of virtue, dressed as a
warrior," with her foot resting "on the chest of the figure of tyranny,
who is lying on the ground." She is holding a spear and her left breast
is exposed.
Or at least it was exposed. At a recent meeting, Cuccinelli provided
pins to his staff with a new seal on which "Virtus' bosom is covered by
an armored breastplate," the Virginia Pilot reported. These new pins
were not paid for by taxpayer dollars, Cuccinelli's office insisted.
next thing you know she'll be wearing a burqua
One like D'Plume's?
